visiting family in ohio

I had a lot of fun visiting my family in Ohio. Many great memories were shared and I loved getting to catch up with everyone.

Day one in Ohio- My plane ride went okay for once which is very suprising. No delays and there was hardly any layover. The night of my arival Santa came to our house and everyone came over with there little kids to sit on his lap. We had dinner which was great and sitting on santas lap was embarasing but now id say it was worth it. I loved getting to hold all the little babies. All of them were adorable. 


Day two in Ohio- on the second day in Ohio we had breakfast with the Yund family and opened our presents. Grandpa Yund who just recently passed away of cancer was a big role in Christmas this year. All the daughters of his were very tuched by all the gifts that were given in memory of him. He actually put together a movie for them to watch called "Me Second." This movie talked about his love for God, his family and all the people that inspired him through the years. One day when im old I hope to be like that man. After Christmas with the Yund family which is also mt step-moms side of the family we went to my dads work christmas party. This party consisted of farmers which made me feel very uncomfortable. I felt like I was from a diffrent country the way they looked at me. After going to that we went to the movie rental place and rented the hunger games. We proceded to watch that after dinner. My dad got hooked and we eneded up watching it two more times.


Day three in Ohio- On the third day in Ohio I went to lunch with my grandparents my brother and sister and my cousins. We went to Dr. Dutchmans which is one of my favorite places to eat when I come to visit Ohio. That night my family and I went to the 7:00pm church service and got to sing about Jesus and his birthday. 


Day four in Ohio- Today which is my very last day in Ohio for Christmas break my family and I woke up and opened presents and ate breakfast. I am beyond thankful for all my gifts even though they are all overwhelming me with the thought of college. After spending a great Christmas morning with the family I went to Catching Fire with my dad and little sister. My dad has formed a love for the hunger games. I was happy to acompany him considering its also my favorite. This will have been my third time seeing the movie in the theater. This AMC theater was so cool. It had reclinable chairs that laid flat like a bed. I think our local AMC needs to step it up a little bit. After the movie we came home just in time for Christmas dinner and opening presents with my dads side of the family. We had a funny gift exchange and I got the duck dynasty chia pet which I thought was ironic considering everyone from Poquoson loves Duck Dynasty. After opening all of our gifts we played games and ate dinner. My grandma brought her pies and im convinced she is one of the best bakers in the world. Over all I had an amazing christmas and I wouldnt have changed it for the world. Tomorrow ill be getting on my flight to head back home and hopefully it goes just as good as coming did.

enjoying a busy life

I havent writen in two weeks because of how hectic life has been. I feel like now that im traveling its a perfect time to catch up on my thoughts that I seem to be sinking in. I have so much to say but I dont know where to start. I think ill start with......

First thought-I had my last Christmas holiday concerts these past could of weeks. We had a concert on Monday night for everyone. Its crazy how time flys and I can remeber the days that I was in mixed choir as a freshman. I love singing more then anything with a choir and I will miss it more then ever when im done with high school. We sang for the high school on the halfday before break for the last time also which was bitter sweet. I am gunna miss singing on stage with a big group of friends.


Second thought- I tried out for Americas Next Top Model on Sunday. it was one of the best experiences ive ever had and I cant wait until next year to try again. I met o many cool people and got to be interviewed that could possibly make it on the web site or show. I still have hope that they could potentially call me back for another audition but I think they have already picked their winners from each audition. fingers crossed though!


Third thought- Ive started back at Texas Roadhouse as the togo girl. I hope to step up to train on being a waitress soon when I am given the chance. I cant wait to start making a lot of money to save up for college. 

Fourth thought- COLLEGE IS SO STRESSFUL! I wish the application prosses was over and I knew where I was going for the next four years of my life. I guess soon enough ill know but until then ill sit with anticapation. 

Fifth thought- I am currently in Ohio visiting with my Ohio family for my last Christmas in High School. It makes me sad knowing my brother and sister wont know me on a brother sister should basis. I hope to continually build the bond between us and maybe one day I wont regret not visiting my Ohio family more often. I cant wait to tell you more about my adventures in Ohio this next week.

Life

Well I haven't written in a few days so thankfully on this lazy Sunday I finally got the chance. Luckily I have so much on my wondering mind.

First thought- I cheeread at my last basketball game the other night for the month of December. The game was sad  and I felt pretty bad for our team considering Bruton broke 101 points on their second game of the season. Other then that one thing that was pretty fun was the fact that I cheered with a lot of seniors and it was pretty fun to spend one of my last games cheering with some of the girls I've grown up with throughout living in Poquoson. I can't believe most of them I will hardely see again after graduation day. Guess I gotta make the rest of senior year last. At that game the student section was awesome. I love being from such a small town where everyone knows everyone. Small town home games always turn into an event. 
(The Seniors)

Second thought- Friday I had court so that the judge could drop a "following to close" ticket I received in a fender bender I got in last year. I was beyond thankful and now I'm actually happy I took my drivers improvement class I was required to take. I feel like a new driver filled with so much knowledge. Although I had to drive to this class and the court date with "class of 2015", "princess" and "Miss USA" and everyone looked at me weird. Right after getting my ticket dropped a cop pulled me over in Poquoson because "my license plate light was out." Thankfully it was just a warning. 

Third thought- After these past few weeks I've learned a lot about people. Only trust yourself because in the end your the only one who tells yourself the truth. I've done a great deal of things for people and in the end it's only yourself you can count on to be there for you. I wish others had the opportunity to feel the pain they inflict on others and someday they will.

Blessed Out

This will sincerely be my first blog post. I have told myself that I will try to write often. Most nights I get restless so this is a great way to cure my thoughts other then prayer. So stay tuned!

First thought- tonight was my last first game cheerleading for the Poquoson High School girl basketball team. I know the basketball players don't enjoy us cheerleaders being there constantly yelling/cheerleading as much but I enjoy it. I love seeing others take joy in something their personally good at & in the end succeeding. I think this years girl team is going to go far considering how talented their players are & the all around motivation. 

Second thought- today I was given something when shortly it seemed to be pulled from me. I will find out the end results of my ultimate hope tomorrow but for now I must wait in anticipation. "Never be to far ahead when you are but so far back."

Third Thought- today I noticed so much stressful things dealing with senior year. I didn't just realize it but I am just now given the opportunity to write about them considering my newly founded hobby. I have an endless checklist that keeps growing as the days pass. 
.college apps
.school work
.cheerleading
.job
.christmas break approaching 
.friends/family
& multiple other small things

Although I complain about so much going on I should consider myself blessed or "blessed out" rather then stressed out. I'm blessed to be sitting in my warm bed typing away about my day. I'm blessed I get to go to school tomorrow in a car rather then walk. I'm blessed because I have family & friends who love me & would do anything for me & I am blessed because God loves me.
